Just gonna point out I nailed the awake fem lines in steep reverse trendelenberg. 😉 What lines specifically did you place if I may ask? Cordis with a 5Fr?

These cases always have their proponents on opposite sides; one side goes full bore uber conservative with all awake lines and everything at the ready while the other side argues minimal anesthesia minimal stimulation and just know what to do when things go south. At this stage in my career (not actually started yet) I fall on the full bore side but I can see the argument for minimalism and not "crying wolf" everytime.

imo it would be malpractice if you didn't do awake lines with severe SVC syndrome and supine dyspnea
